Of the provisional eleven named above, Robinson is a good tackler and blocker, but rather light for the rush line. He was substitute last year. Rhodes is a sure tackler and has great endurance, though he is not so quick as he should be. Brooks is a strong guard, blocking well and a slow and sure tackler. He played last year. Corbin, centre rush and captain, is a powerful man of long experience in foot ball. He is considered the best centre rush...

We have been unfortunate in the last two races, but far from being...
...friends. It is not necessary for us to urge acceptance of this invitation. We are sure that a deep sense of obligation and of gratitude to Dr. Hale will cause a large at tendance. Dr. Hale may be sure that he will leave hundreds of friends behind him who, though reluctant to part with him, wish him the fullest success in his labors in other directions. We hope that Dr. Hale's voice will often be heard unofficially in Appleton Chapel during the coming terms...
